<p>You’d need to explain your grading system: 4.1 unweighted. Also the breakdown of your SAT scores.</p>

<p>You’ll be in the running at ALL of those colleges, but you’re not CERTAIN to get in any of them. But I think most people would be shocked if you didn’t get into at least a few of them. The list is great, but you might want to throw in a stone safety or two that would be a great place to go, like Fordham, Boston U., Wisconsin, or Miami of Ohio.</p>

<p>Thanks!!
my 4.1 is on a 4.33 scale
SATs: 730 reading 760 math 720 writing</p>

<p>ECs are ok- a little scattered- but ok. Grades stable, SAT strong. Make sure you have an extraordinary essay, as in it would give signs to the reader that you have passion. :slight_smile: Good recs are a must too.</p>

<p>All Ivies for ya are reaches mainly because they’re hard to get to and you’re ECs are a little scattered. Make that essay great. :)</p>

<p>Yale- high reach
Harvard- high reach
Dartmouth-reach
Princeton-high reach
Tufts- high match/low reach (not sure though)
Boston College- I’d say a high match/low reach
WUSL-?
John Hopkins- reach
Emory-reach
UPenn-reach</p>

<p>I agree with the guy above. You need to apply to at least fordham or Syracuse(biased for these schools though! I’m applying! :slight_smile: ) . You could also apply to NYU. In my opinion, you have great chances of getting in at NYU, but that’s just me.</p>

<p>chance me back?</p>

<p>Ehh…SAT score is a little weak. Up to a certain point, higher SAT scores correlate with higher acceptance rates. IMO, the idea of an “SAT threshold” at top schools is a myth–ie, your chances are not equal to someone with a 2400 simply because you have a score >2200.</p>

<p>What’s your rank? Your grading system is atypical.</p>

<p>EC-wise, nothing jumps out, unless your sports teams are particularly competitive. Have you won any state or national awards?</p>

<p>Make sure you add a few match and safety schools, because most of these schools will be huge reaches. You’ll probably have a good chance at BC and Tufts though.</p>
